“Bang!” With a gunshot in the dark night, the Japanese infantry finally entered the battle.
However, the first battle between the First Division and the infantry of the Fourth Line Regiment was not in the early morning of the second day, but in the middle of the night.
"At 7 o'clock tomorrow morning, all ministries will launch a ground attack!" Saburo Okabe looked at the casualty reports sent by the ministries on the table as the sun set. His face was as iron as steel. After a moment of silence, he gave the order in a cold voice.
“Order the special attack brigade of the front army to attack!”
The so-called special attack brigade was formed on the basis of Fujiwara Senio's original special attack squadron.
Although in the battle in mid-1938, the special attack squadron led by Fujiwara Senzuo ended in the annihilation of the entire army, after the war, after analysis and combined with the elusive scouts of the Four Troops, the departed General Sugisugimoto still remained The role of this elite team was affirmed, and his successor also agreed with this view.
With the insistence of the two commanders, the special attack squadron was not only not abolished, but was even expanded and built from the squadron to the brigade level.
It's just that the personnel reorganized this time did not use domestic ninjas and warriors as the main personnel like the martial arts madman Fujiwara Senio. Instead, elite veterans with more than 3 years of military service were directly drawn from the divisions of the North China Front to assist with the best. The equipment, coupled with some special training, is similar to the reconnaissance company of the Four Lines Regiment, and already has a bit of the shadow of the future special forces.
The training lasted for a full year. After recovering from his injury, Sentio Fujiwara also served as their fighting instructor and often participated in their training.
It is said to be a large group, but the number of personnel who can ultimately pass the training and assessment is actually only about 300, which is about the same size as the current reconnaissance company of the Fourth Line Regiment.
But the rank is very high. Its commander is the rank of major, and the lowest rank among the officers and soldiers is also the sergeant. Its organization is also different from the ordinary infantry brigade. There are no squadrons under the brigade, only squads and detachments.
A squad consists of five squads of 12 people. The squad leader is a captain, and the squad leader is a lieutenant or second lieutenant.
The standard equipment of the team members is the newly developed Type 99 7.7mm 5-shot bolt-action short-barreled rifle. The penetration power of the 7.7mm ammunition into simple fortifications such as earth walls far exceeds that of the 6.5mm Arisaka bullet, which is shorter than the 6.5mm Arisaka bullet. The cut barrel has no loss of accuracy within the effective range of 350 meters.
In addition, some members are equipped with German Empire MP28 submachine guns for fire support. Each member carries a Southern Type 14 pistol and a sword made of stainless steel according to their own preferences, as well as high-calorie rations that can survive in the wild for a week.
Although there is no grenade due to the weight, but only in terms of medium and long-range firepower, this is definitely the most powerful existence among the Japanese infantry.
In this battle of Zishan, Duo Tianjun was finally willing to stab out the sharp knife that had been sharpened for a year, which was considered as another strong support for Saburo Okabe.
Saburo Okabe, who was the Chief of Staff of the North China Front and personally presided over its formation, naturally knew the tactical role of this elite force. Of course, he would not be so stupid as to let them attack China's well-prepared forward positions at night.
Saburo Okabe had already broken this 290-man unit into small groups. The 501st Infantry Regiment, led by Miyauchi Yoshio, reached a peak 16 miles from the flank of the offensive direction and bypassed the Chinese defensive position. Climb the mountains, enter the Chinese defense zone, and conduct reconnaissance and destruction behind enemy lines.
In fact, the Japanese army's usual attack method has always been to send small groups of troops to go around the enemy's rear to carry out various harassment and sabotage, and to wait for opportunities to assassinate important enemy figures. In the past, General Zhang died on the battlefield. There was a sneak attack by a small group of Japanese troops.
Now, after many encounters with the Four Elements Group, the beaten Japanese finally let go of their arrogance, began to learn from their opponents, and gained a certain degree of destructive power.
It is conceivable that if such an elite force is allowed to penetrate into the Zishan defense zone, it will bring terrible destructive power.
However, the area of Zishan is too large. Even though Tang Tuanzuo, who had spent a year conducting detailed surveys of the mountainous areas around Zishan and was familiar with the defensible areas, could only set up defense lines in areas where people and heavy equipment could pass, he was unable to stop light attacks. The infantry entered over the mountains and ridges.
But Tang Tuanzuo is the strongest individual soldier from the strongest special forces on the border of China in the future. When it comes to large-scale group operations, Tang Tuanzuo is probably far from the top, but when it comes to special operations, he is the No. 1 in this time and space. 1, no one.
Tang Dao had already dispersed nearly 700 people from the reconnaissance company and mountain infantry company that he had recalled. However, this time Tang Dao did not focus on attacking the enemy as before. More than 100 people served as his eyes on the plain, and another 500 Many people can be inside the defense zone.
However, because the Four Lines Regiment has many logistics departments located in the mountains, most of its troops are deployed for defense around these troops, and less than one-third of them can be dispersed into the mountains.
Using Tang Dao to tell the two company commanders: "The prey coming this time may be very ferocious. You hunters should be careful not to miss the prey and be bitten by it instead."
Tang Dao's prediction of the Japanese army this time did not come from intelligence, but combined with the losses suffered last time when Fujiwara Battle led his troops to attack the defense area of the 17th Division in Southeast Shanxi. Based on his understanding of the Japanese, they had tasted the sweetness before. Will not give up easily.
Moreover, Tang Dao has always had an intuition that he will also meet Fujiwara Senio. The guy who is obsessed with martial arts is by no means the kind of person who gives up easily.
But this time, part of Tang Dao's intuition was obviously wrong. At this time, Fujiwara Senzuo was still training himself desperately on the training ground belonging to the special attack brigade in Pingbei City.
Fujiwara Senzuo, who has already failed twice at the hands of Tang Dao, will never allow himself to fail a third time. Not only is he proud, but Fujiwara Senzuo understands that if it were not for his sake, he could get back a brigade of equipment and hundreds of For the sake of the captured people, with Tang Dao's personality, the grass on his grave might be taller than that of someone else.
That means that he has one and only one chance. Martial arts alone is no longer enough for him to fight that man to the death. He has to become stronger, no matter with cold weapons or hot weapons.
But another part of Tang Dao's intuition was right. The prey had already arrived, and it was extremely ferocious.
“Four.” After Yuanxiao fired a shot, he quickly rolled over and rolled down the grass nest where he had just sheltered, while mumbling to himself and counting.
Obviously, Yuan Xiao hid in time, but a second later, the grass nest where he had just been hiding was covered by several rounds of bullets. If he was still there, he would be injured or killed at this moment. The little devil's shooting skills are amazingly accurate.
Quietly laying his body behind the thick exposed roots of a dead old tree, Yuanxiao looked to the other side of his right hand and saw the squad leader hiding behind a stone not far away giving him a thumbs up.
Yuanxiao smiled softly, revealing her beautiful white teeth in the watery moonlight.
At such a moment of life and death, Yuanxiao, who had always been aloof, had never felt that the squad leader's encouragement was so important to him. Perhaps it's because he needs his companions to fight alongside him more!
As a senior soldier in a mountain infantry company, Yuanxiao has always been a relatively unique existence.
Yuanxiao is not a nickname, it is his name!
Yuanxiao's experience of joining the Four Elements Group was a little different from others. In November 1938, Tang Dao led Long Yan and others back to his hometown and met him on the streets of the mountain city.
When I met Yuanxiao, this guy was actually a homeless man who was so hungry that his eyes turned green. Such homeless people can be seen everywhere on the streets of mountain cities, but this guy who was about to starve to death was a little different from the others. When facing passers-by, He didn't even look at the cake thrown on the ground, unless he put the cake in his hand.
Of course, that may also be the time when hunger is not at its worst. Only those who have been hungry know that until the end of hunger, not to mention the pancakes thrown on the ground, even if they are thrown into the latrine, you will wash them and carefully stuff them into your mouth. There won't be any scum left in it.
However, this young homeless man's tenacious willpower made Long Yan, who had also been hungry and knew what it was like, look at him differently.
Long Yan felt that he could be a soldier, so with Long Yan's persuasion and funding, the homeless man Yuan Xiao went to Tang Dao's hometown to join the new corps, which could not only solve his problem of food but also solve the problem of soldiers. It was a double win.
What makes Long Yan dumbfounded is that this young man who looks extremely handsome after cleaning is actually lazy and can't do anything else, even folding quilts. If the average soldier can fold into tofu cubes after a few days of training, that guy Stacked, like a pile of - shit.
Not only that, he is also very cold, and no one takes him seriously.
If he hadn't seen him living on the street with his own eyes, Long Yan would definitely have regarded him as a dandy young man who was indifferent to food and work. For a guy like this, he didn't eat what he called the food he brought and didn't starve to death. He was really blind.
However, the origin mentioned by Yuanxiao can well confirm his performance. A young man from a wealthy family was forced to start a new business in central Sichuan due to differences between his brothers in the family. He suffered heavy losses. In the end, he had to live alone on the streets due to an accident.
What is surprising is that after Tang Dao's father learned about this situation, he gave Yuan Xiao 20 yuan in silver to let him go home, but he refused.
Yuanxiao followed the Sichuan Army's new regiment all the way to Tongguan and Zhongtiao Mountain until they entered southeastern Shanxi. Regardless of combat experience or time, he can be called a veteran, but in reality, he is still a new recruit.
Since Yuanxiao barely participated in the battle, the new company commander was afraid that this guy would cause trouble, so he asked him to be a clerk, helping the entire company's officers and soldiers write family letters and collect statistics on battle results and material distribution. Even when they arrived in southeastern Shanxi, all the new recruits were dispersed and reorganized. Yuanxiao was selected by Long Yan to join the elite mountain infantry company. He also served as a clerk at the company headquarters and was a purely civilian upper class soldier.
But what impressed Gu Xishui was not Long Yan's recommendation, but Yuan Xiao's extreme intelligence. From a person who could be said to have no ability, he caught up with many recruits who were stronger than him in just one month. All skills are not the strongest, but his smart mind is his biggest advantage.
What makes people speechless is that whether it is training or assessment, this lazy but talented guy is always ranked at the front, a little worse than the veterans, but a little better than the recruits. Even Gu Xishui could only shake his head and let it go.
This is a good piece of steel, but it hasn't been heated enough.
Gu Xishui is not helpless, but he believes that only through war, Yuanxiao, a somewhat unusual soldier, will definitely become a good soldier like his comrades.
Therefore, before the Battle of Zishan, Gu Xishui kicked Yuanxiao, a veteran with more than a year of military service, into the infantry squad and became a new recruit in the front-line infantry.
Now, Yuanxiao, who is both old and new at the same time, is going through the most difficult test in his life.
Tonight the moonlight is as bright as the mercury, which is actually not a good weather for killing people.
The woods in the north are mostly coniferous forests, which are not too dense in themselves. Under such starlight, the visibility is not low, and the enemy's shadow can be seen ten or twenty meters away.
However, this was not the main reason why Yuanxiao harvested the fourth head in half an hour. Some small traps that Yuanxiao made while retreating were the main reason for the deaths of the four Japanese soldiers.
The sound and the moment's hesitation will all wait for the Lantern Festival's bullet that is about to arrive.
But even so, Yuanxiao and the veteran squad leader are still in danger.
I don't know if it was too unlucky, but the hunting group composed of two of them actually encountered a small detachment of the Japanese army, an enemy that was six times more powerful than them.
At present, they have killed 6 people, but there are still 6 people hiding opposite them. As long as they are not careful, the two people will suffer disaster.
Half an hour passed, and no reinforcements were approaching the two of them. The sporadic gunshots and grenade explosions that kept coming in the distance showed that the comrades in the platoon also encountered their enemies.
If you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself. At least, we have to hold on until reinforcements arrive. Yuan Xiao lowered his head and scanned the surroundings with only the corner of his eyes, while listening vigilantly to all the sounds coming from around him.
Everything is very quiet, so quiet that one feels suffocated to breathe.
The remaining 6 Japanese soldiers were no better than the 2 soldiers of the Fourth Line Regiment. After half an hour of fighting, they finally determined that the ones who sniped at them were just two Chinese soldiers.
What they couldn't accept was that two Chinese soldiers shot and killed six of their comrades. Especially judging from the accurate hit of the opponent's last shot, the two opponents were still alive and well. The comrade who was shot in the head was lying quietly in the grass. Like the first five, he had long lost the value of saving him.
The elites of the Chinese people are actually more terrifying than their elites selected from an army of more than 200,000 people? When they first entered the battlefield, the smug Japanese elite were frightened by the attacks of two Chinese soldiers whose marksmanship was terrifyingly accurate.
To be precise, these Japanese troops have begun to intend to retreat, and they do not even want the honor of being the Imperial Army of the Empire of Japan.
They would rather die on the battlefield than in this silent jungle. They shuddered at the thought that their bodies would become food for the wild beasts in this jungle.
However, the two Chinese soldiers returned to the darkness and maintained terrifying silence, which made it clear to these elite Japanese soldiers that the other side did not intend to let them go.
If you want to run, you will only die faster.
If you want to survive, you can only kill the enemy.
At this point, soldiers from both China and Japan have a common understanding.
I won't be able to live well until you die!
With the constant waving gestures of a Japanese second lieutenant, the remaining Japanese troops gathered their courage, spread out, and approached the two opponents.
As long as the distance is shortened, the two Chinese soldiers will die.
Time passed little by little, and the night became darker and darker, but the moonlight and stars in the sky seemed to become brighter and brighter, so bright that it made people palpitate.
The two Chinese soldiers and the Japanese team were still entangled. Due to the imbalance in numbers, the two Chinese soldiers were obviously much more exhausted. For safety reasons, the distance between the two people was also getting farther and farther, and they were separated by more than ten meters. Protecting each other.
On the opposite side, there were only 4 Japanese soldiers left. In the nearly three hours of entanglement, another Japanese soldier was caught and accidentally stepped into the trap set by Yuan Xiao. However, Yuan Xiao and his squad leader did not need to replenish their guns and learned to fight on their own. Professor Tang Tuanzuo's booby trap technique directly broke off a leg of a Japanese soldier who touched a grenade under a leaf.
When the Japanese soldier closest to him was so frightened that he ignored the danger and went to save the Kyushu Island compatriot whose thigh had already flown more than ten meters away, the veteran squad leader who was more than ten meters away shot him in the head.
The two soldiers used the tactics Tang Tuanzuo wrote in the pamphlet, using wounded enemy soldiers as bait to kill their rescue companions, which was considered a miniaturized siege and rescue operation.
The most typical case is that in the war in the 1980s when the Republic of the past time and space taught a disobedient little brother a lesson, a Chinese soldier hiding in a cat's ear hole used an Annan soldier who was seriously injured and unable to move to kill him. Killed more than one class of enemies.
In the end, even the Chinese soldiers themselves became a little soft-hearted, but the Annan people were still determined not to give up their plan to rescue their comrades. In the end, more than 20 soldiers participating in the rescue died, and the wounded soldiers still died in the same place after bleeding. That's the end.
Unfortunately, the Japanese were not Annan people. The remaining four Japanese soldiers were obviously determined enough. After discovering the intentions of the Chinese soldiers, the leading Japanese second lieutenant did not hesitate and shot the compatriots who were still wailing.
At this point in the war, it is no longer a question of whether to be afraid or whether to live or die. The only thought on both sides is to kill the other side. One side wants to protect the country and the other side wants revenge.
The final result can only be the end of one side falling down.
The Japanese's marksmanship is also extremely accurate, almost on the same level as the veteran squad leader. If we have to judge the rankings, Yuanxiao is ranked last in the overall rankings of both China and Japan.
It's just that Yuanxiao was smart enough to make full use of the right time and place to completely make up for this gap. Otherwise, due to the huge disparity in troops, the two Chinese soldiers would have been cold.
The two of them fought and retreated, and the space was compressed little by little.
The veteran squad leader kept gesturing towards Yuanxiao, but Yuanxiao just pretended not to see him.
Although he is still aloof, after living and eating together for a year, not to mention the deep friendship he has formed with these rude big-headed soldiers, he has actually recognized them in his heart.
What's more, without the squad leader's desperate rescue, he might have died in the jungle. How could he leave the squad leader alone to stop the four Japanese soldiers and escape by himself?
Even if he could go back alive, not to mention not being able to see the company commander and brothers, even his stubborn father, who had been completely blocked in his heart, would be disappointed again!
“Hey, what a pity for this guy!” Seeing that Yuan Xiao was not moved at all, the veteran squad leader sighed inwardly. He finally let go of his worries and looked ahead with a calm heart.
Since the best-looking soldier in the company doesn't want to run away alone, let's face death together!
It is best to kill one or two more before death. A veteran who completely disregards life and death and calms down is undoubtedly terrifying.
